STRAY HEARTS ANGELS
Do you want to help Stray Hearts in perpetuity?
Please consider becoming a STRAY HEARTS ANGEL, a member of our valued planned giving society.
Our STRAY HEARTS ANGELS let us know they plan on creating a LASTING LEGACY by leaving an estate gift to help Stray Hearts after they’re gone.
And as a STRAY HEARTS ANGEL, we can help provide you with additional information and guidance on implementing a planned gift to STRAY HEARTS.
How exactly does my planned gift help Stray Hearts?
A planned gift can be designated directly to our unrestricted endowment, where it will be used only at the discretion of Stray Heart’s Financial Advisory Committee for long-term general operating or unforeseen needs.
Alternately, you can designate your planned gift be used solely for a specific Stray Hearts program, such as our Adoption program, our Foster program, or Stray Heart’s community Food Bank.
It’s YOUR money ~ you tell US exactly where YOU want it used after you’re gone.
OK, but what kind(s) of planned gifts could I leave Stray Hearts?
A Bequest: A gift made as part of a will or trust.
Retirement Accounts: A retirement plan can be a tax-efficient and simple way of including STRAY HEARTS in your estate planning.
You may also want to consider making a gift to STRAY HEARTS with a "qualified charitable distribution" or "IRA charitable rollover" from your Individual Retirement Account (IRA), and take advantage of tax savings.
Distributions and rollovers are great for charitably-minded people with large qualified retirement plans and/or IRAs.
Other Planned Giving Methods: There are a number of other ways estates can be gifted to STRAY HEARTS through things like Charitable Lead Trusts, Charitable Remainder Trusts, Donor-Advised Funds and/or Life Insurance.
If you want to know more, STRAY HEARTS has resources for additional information from financial advisors on these ways to donate.
